When new employers are checking business references are they allowed to ask about the candidate's attendance at the previous job?

AttendanceI used to be a headhunter. Yes, you can definitely ask candidates or prior employers about attendance, performance, attitude, etc. They would only have prior employers contact info if you gave them as a reference though.

More opinions from FAQ Farmers:

  • I don't think they can ask about your attendance. But that doesn't mean that they won't or that your previous owner won't tell them. Allowed to and actually doing can be two different things.
  • An employer can ask about attendance but how many honest people are there that will admit attendance issues. That is one of the few things still can be asked but hard too verify.

Attendance inquires about another person could be classified as confidential, but it will certainly depend on the type of job that you are being hired for. If I am going to hire a doctor. Attendance will be a question to ask. I we are looking to hire a baby sitter, that is a question to be asked. In other areas attendance may not be important to someone who may do very well in his or her job. I would rather want to learn more about their experience and performance level overall. How well does the employee get along with others. Some attendance issues can be under jurisdictions of medical leave, bereavement leave and even compensation leave. If however someone has a history of constant absences it is something to want to ask about and it's best to ask that directly to the person you are interviewing first and then get another opinion from his or her supervisor or other employees who know the person well.

Should night school be included on a resume?

A resume is intended to be a -history- of your education, experience, and previous employment. It shouldn't include "I plan to finish this degree in night school while I work at my next job" information. Save that for the interview if they ask about it. Attending night classes might be a strike against you because they may want you to work overtime on occasion and if you have a conflict of interest, someone without this conflict will probably get the job. Just list that you're currently working on your associate's degree, any relevant courses you've already taken that would prove useful to an employer, what college you're taking the courses at, when you started going, when you plan to complete the program, and, if it's over a 3.0 average, you might want to list your GPA or grades in courses that are relevant to the job you are applying for. There's lots of ways to work this information to your advantage, but the key thing here is that employers generally don't care about what you do outside of work--so long as it doesn't interfere with work.

What are the legal guidelines when giving a reference on a former employee to a potential employer in Indiana?

Check with your Department of Labor. Some states, like Michigan, have a law that protects employers when giving a reference, but there are some stipulations. The information must be truthful and not misleading, and must not violate any state or federal laws. FYI - Keep reference checks in a separate file from the employees' personnel file and keep in mind the employee has a legal right to see his/her references (they actually have a right to review their entire personnel file at least once a year and may request a copy of the file's contents). The company may set the number of times a year the employee may view their file - usually once or twice. And the employer may have a rule that the request be in writing and will give the employer up to one week to comply. I always sat in the room with the employee while they were looking through their file.

When filling out a job application do you have to list convictions if they were committed while you were under 18?

(Disclaimer: This answer applies to Massachusetts and is probably slightly different depending on the state you live in, such as what age you're considered a juvenile, etc.) If you are a juvenile (in MA, age 7 until the day you turn 17, NOT 18) and you have a court hearing in which you are found guilty, you are adjudicated, not convicted. So your answer to the question "were you ever convicted of a crime?" if you were under 17, should be no. As I understand it, If you are considered a Juvenile Delinquent from your hearing, your records are not open to the public until you are 18. If you are a Youthful Offender (considered more dangerous), your records are open to the public any time. Basically, if you apply for a job and they run a background (CORI) check on you, anything you did at any age (except for the Juvenile Delinquent under 18) will be there, and will be there unless you seal your record, which can be done with an attorney and you have to wait 3 years in order to do it. whatever you did before 18 is totally off your record, there is no need to inform them of this. I'm not totally sure, but I think they are removed from your record when you turn 18. So, I don't think you have to list them. No you do not. They do not have the right to ask you if you are a minor. Its a good idea to tell them about anything that would show up in a background check, but if it was before you were 18 it wont show up. Unless it was really, really bad.

Is a dismissed chapter 13 bad?

I suppose it matters what you mean by "bad." If it is dismissed because you won the lottery and you paid everything off, I'd say it's good. But, more than likely, it isn't good because if your financial situation drove you to file Chapter 13 and then the 13 was dismissed, the creditors will probably soon be after you again. Credit-wise, it's bad because your credit score took a 75 to 150 point drop when you filed, and even though the case was dismissed, this credit drop can only be healed by time, not by dismissal. And, if you end up filing another Chapter 13, you'll suffer another 75 to 150 point drop on top of the first one. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.

If you do not have any friends how do you fill out the references part of job applications?

References should be people who can speak to your character as well as job skills. Use a previous employer, someone you did volunteer work with, a team coach, a clergyman, a teacher. Even people who are not social butterflies come in contact with people everyday. If you do not, volunteer someone and get to know people, so people know you.

You could also use your parents' friends.

What questions can you legally ask a bank or business when checking credit references?

The information that is usually asked for includes; average account balances, how long accounts have been open, overdrafts, times late on loans, high credit limit and things like this.

Can you use a company name that has been trademarked?

You may be able to if your use of the name doesn't diminish in any way the value of the trademark, but if there is any way in which your use of the name might cause confusion for the customers of the trademark holder, they will probably fight your use of the name. Bottom Line: Discuss your plans with a business-savvy attorney If by "use the name" you mean open another company using the same (or similar) name, the quick answer is "possibly", but you need to do a little research first. This is called a "clearance" search. :Note: This presumes you do not already have superior rights to use the trademarked name, say, if you were using it well before the other company came along. A company name, by itself, cannot be trademarked -- it has to be associated with some specific product or service before it becomes a "trademark." If the name you're interested belongs to a company that sells things completely unrelated to yours, or only in a very distant place from you, you might be okay. But not necessarily, depending upon how "famous" the name is already. You could not, for example, market a hockey puck called "American Express" without having a chat with their lawyers. Similarly, Hostess brand hockey pucks might not fly very far. This is because those brands' owners can prevent "blurring" and "tarnishing" of their brands by others who may want to take advantage of pre-existing brand recognition, even if nobody is confused about who makes the product. You might do a "Little Wendy's Shoe Polish" product, but not a "Wendy's Drive-In Shoe Shine," because the latter mimics the existing fast food chain. A company with a valuable trademark will often register its rights (in a state or federal registry) and you can start by researching the scope of protection they claim. On the other hand, they are not required to register a brand, so there may be other things they sell that are not included in any of the registrations. If you are going to put a lot of money into the marketing of your company, you should budget a few thousand dollars for an intellectual property attorney to "clear" the use of the trademark before you proceed. A large US company might pay $50,000 or more in worldwide clearance search and opinions, only to find someone else already has used a similar brand in a similar way. To avoid trouble, they start over with another name. Once you know what they claim, you can compare your product/service with theirs, look at the marketing channels you both use, look at both your customer bases, and other factors. If there is ANY overlap, you should be very careful. It would be a shame to devote a lot of effort to build up a brand only to lose it later and have to start over with a safer one. If by "use a company name", you mean "refer to a company name" that has been trademarked, e.g., use it for comparison, or to link to their website, or say you live next door to it, the rules are different. You may legally "use" the name XYZ in your own materials (say, an eBay advertisement) if all you're saying is that the product was made by XYZ (click here for their product info), or even that the thing you're selling is compatible with XYZ. Similarly, in advertising your own products, you could say that yours is "a working replacement for XYZ" or "better than XYZ" if you have proof that the statement is true. You can say, "we hired all the former XYZ engineers before the company collapsed", as long as it's true. However, you may not use a company name that is trademarked if all you're doing is coat-tailing on the fame of its trademark, such as "Our Disney souvenirs are cheaper than the licensed ones!" Many large companies also strongly object to your use of their brand names in meta-tags or hidden text on websites, let alone using their proprietary graphics as "links" to their websites without a license. They have the right to control the source and quality of any affiliate, and to prevent others from falsely claiming an affiliation. Even under so-called "fair use" of a product trademark, you may still get sued for mis-use and it will cost you thousands of dollars in attorneys' fees even to reach a settlement.

What is the uniform of the Massachusetts?

I am not sure I understand your question, and I live in Massachusetts. If you are asking about school uniforms or school colors, those vary: for example, the school colors of the University of Massachusetts in Amherst (in the western part of the state) are maroon and white. But I teach at Lesley University in Cambridge (about ten minutes from Boston), and our colors are green and white. Colleges and universities rarely make students wear a uniform, although when they graduate, there is a special kind of academic regalia (a cap and gown) that graduates and faculty wear. Parochial schools and private schools often have uniforms, and they also have school colors -- one well known private school is Milton Academy, and its colors are blue and orange. Police and firefighters all have special uniforms, and so do members of some other occupations-- in fact, if you can give us more information, we can better answer your question.
